Farming berries is a job for children, since you don't have much of a hunger bar and you're always close to food and, well, someone has to do it.

Don't farm berries as an adult though. Even if the berry farm is depleted, it's better to get the next lot of kids on it while you do something more productive.

Actually this is a terrible idea, let me explain my reasoning though.
First off, the next batch may not know how
Second, if you don’t water them there won’t be food to raise the next batch of children and the civilization could die

i explained to 5 people not to throw sheep into pits, the next one still did it, the damage is done, less than 1 hour it was ruined

I know your pain, many a time my life has ended with me as an angry old person yelling at people in town over stuff like this...

Thing is we're fighting a losing battle when using something ingame for something other than it's original purpose, it's a trash pit, it makes sense to throw stuff away into it. Now if we could dig ditches instead....

Or we could have pits that we tell people for pens and trash pits for well trash

Don't like how easily one murderer can finish a lineage? Petition Jason to change it. I think the game would be better with further restricted murdering abilities.

Ok ok ok let’s not put negativity into this thread everyone has a different view and playstyle

Any more ad hominem will lead to this thread being closed and might lead to punishments to the users involved. And I'm mostly looking at you here, littlemissmesssy.

This is an official warning.

Actually you should probably delete the thread right now anyway just Incase so that no one else can post a message

I do play every once in a while.... maybe once a week or so.  I'm always impressed with the cities that I find.

I have never been killed.  I have never killed anyone.

I have healed someone who was wounded, however.

Get out Jason you’re supposed to be on a vacation

It is what it sounds luckiest you have gotten in OHOL.

I think the luckiest thing to happen to me was awhile ago but basically there was a huge famine that killed almost everyone in town and some griefers as well that kept activating bear caves. So long story short I ended up being the last girl because for some reason people decide not to feed girls, and thank god the other people where there or it probably would have been it but somehow through all that the family line persisted about five more generations before starvation hit again

Jason, given that lineages are never longer than 24 hours and most lineages die off due to griefing there is an issue with griefers being unable to be controlled/contained by society. Sure it adds drama and intrigue and I get the allure of that....but in society the criminal element could under NO circumstances kill off all fertile females in the entire civilization. Wrongdoers could be caught or killed because they were a tiny percentage of said society. You want towns to handle crime then there needs to be additional measures in place to allow them to do so. A person slowed after a murder could be hit with tools to murder them. A global chat for the town could better spread word and organize a resistance to an attack by griefers. A lasso could be used to temporary hold down a suspect for 5 minutes for questioning if a town suspected bad behavior. Those injured by knives or bows could have bleedout timers extended by 30 seconds giving more probability of them being healed by an advanced town. Again, a global chat in an advanced town would allow someone hurt outside town to name accuser and ask for help as they ran to the center of town giving the town time to gather the medical supplies.

Ahem stop bitching nothing is perfect, society is far from it, murderers go without punishment in real life, honestly just make two knives one given to a trustworthy person and one for hunting. That’s my solution if you can’t just accept the fact that shit happens

You guys are saying that there's simply no way to handle this problem yourselves, and you need me to handle it for you automatically.

In real life, there is no curse system, and no justice is automatic.

Justice is one of the most interesting aspects of civilization.  It's a hard problem to solve.  It may be THE main problem that civilization faces.

And here you are, facing it.  It's tough!  People are hard to catch.  The innocent get hurt, and the perp often gets away.  Some people feel bad for the perp and give them additional chances, etc.


Sounds like a really interesting problem to me.  One that I don't want to solve for you.

The curse system is there to make up for the one small difference from real life:  reincarnation.


If you have people in your village who are raising cursed babies, and you think that is wrong, what are you going to do about it?  Argue with the parent?  Kill or curse the parent?  Start a committee to inspect every newborn baby in the village?  Then a mother notices her cursed baby and rushes into the hills to hide it from the committee?

Interesting....

Honestly a good point
Well done Jason

To be honest, I really like the curse system, in that it puts the decision of who to curse in the hands of the players. It being limited to an hour of game play forces the person cursing the individual to be wise about their decisions.

I honestly haven't seen sheep mentality hit over 3-4 people in a village, most players seem to wait til they see it for themselves or are killed. Generally, good people can make good decisions- and we have a lot of good people that play this game (give or take some of you on these forums lol)

So here's a crazy idea Why not have a crafted-wearable item which if worn, you cannot pick up a knife or weapon- or carts, nor can you wear a backpack! It forces the player to give up power in the game-- and in return you become what would be akin to a 'medicine man' in tribal times. This 'medicine man' power would allow the player wearing said item would be-able to heal.

Now, not being a fan of 'honky-dory' endings all the time- so maybe putting a catch in of a cool-down time in how often you can use the ability.

There should be a note-able relationship with this item and weapons- if you have even touched a knife or a bow in your in-game-life, you cannot pick up the +healing item. And if you once held/wore the item, but then picked up a weapon--- both scenarios will render you 10 curses worth of shade.

The item could be a jade crown or a highly detailed cape of some sort or something on the blue or purple shade to make it really stand out

Quite a stupid idea because you need knife to hunt and kill animals and the same with the bow

Baker my sister in one game said she was going to steal my hat when I die
She wore it for about five minutes and died of old age
We had fun together like when she ate a mushroom and thought she broke the game
